Select a Public Region

Hello.

We had published SmartHomeAction in 2023 in a “staged rollout” status.
There was a request for this to be limited to the public region, but it appears that the limited publication option was eliminated when we transitioned from Action on Google to the Developer Console.

I would like to confirm a few things,
(1) Is it currently not possible to have region-specific publishing?
(2) Was it possible in the past to limit the region of Smart Home Action?
(3) Regarding (2), if we have not made any changes to the Action that we specifically launched, is the Smart Home Action that we published in 2023 still restricted in the regions that it is published?

I am hoping for an answer.
Thaks.

After transition from Actions on Google to the Google Actions Developer Console, region-specific publishing for Smart Home Actions is no longer supported. Actions are now published globally. You can still inform users about your target region by including it in your Action's name (e.g., "[Action Name] - North America").

Even if you haven't made changes, after the transition to the new console, your Action is now available globally, regardless of the original settings.
